Valley Center woman, 67, killed in Sunday night crash

OCEANSIDE 
A 67-year-old woman was killed late Sunday in a rollover crash when the SUV in which she was riding was struck by another vehicle and went off southbound Interstate 5.

Leslie Sheila Foster and her husband were returning from a concert in Anaheim when their Toyota RAV4 was struck by a Chrysler PT Cruiser around 9:35 p.m. just north of Oceanside, the county Medical Examiner's Office said.

After it was hit, the RAV4 went into an uncontrollable skid, went off the highway and rolled over. Foster, of Valley Center, died before she could be taken to a hospital, officials said.

Her husband suffered minor injuries in the crash and was treated and released.

The driver of the PT Cruiser was a 43-year-old Italian man in the United States on vacation. Neither he nor his passenger was injured in the crash.

He was booked into the Vista jail on suspicion of misdemeanor manslaughter, said California Highway Patrol Officer Eric Newbury.

No drugs or alcohol were involved in the crash. “He just drifted into his lane,” Newbury said.
